Morgan-McVey

Morgan McVey were a mid-1980s pop duo with a background in fashion photography, video direction and modeling, composed of Jamie Morgan and Cameron McVey.[1] Jamie Morgan has been highly influential as part of Buffalo, a styling team whose streetwise look was typical in the style mags of the time.

The group released a single, "Looking Good Diving", through Sony Records in 1987,[2] produced by Stock Aitken Waterman and mixed by Phil Harding. The B-side, "Looking Good Diving with the Wild Bunch", featured Neneh Cherry on vocals, and was a tribute to the 'buffalo stance', a type of pose. "Looking Good Diving with the Wild Bunch" was re-recorded by Cherry in 1988 and released as her debut solo single, "Buffalo Stance". "Buffalo Stance" peaked at No. 3 on the UK chart,[3] and achieved similar success around the world.

After the duo split, Jamie J. Morgan would go on to release a cover of "Walk on the Wild Side", which peaked at number 27 on the UK Singles Chart in 1990,[4] whilst Cameron McVey would go on to produce for electronic acts Massive Attack and Portishead and pop acts like All Saints and Sugababes.
